Re: Mark ALL forums read button?
It can be found from the Board index page already, but I think it should be a link at the top of the page permanently.
Also, when looking through "View unread posts", I'd like to be able to tick off individual threads as "mark as read" as I look down that list, so I can clean it up manually and quickly but still look at the ones I want to. Instead, I pick out the ones I like, open them all in new tabs, then "Mark all forums read" via the main index - it's fine, it works, but it is cumbersome.

Yep, it's not easy to see it. It's just on the right side, on top of the Last post header of the main sections table.

I tried adding this last night but got some strange results. I'll see what I can do.

It is there and works correctly for me.
I like having it on the board index, that avoids confusion between marking all forums read, and marking a specific subforum read.

Re: Mark ALL forums read button?
OK, I think I and others were confused because it really does not show up on search results pages, e.g. after you click "View new posts" or "View unread posts".
I tried getting it working on that screen - having it up next to the "View unread posts" link, but it didn't work as expected, I think because it doesn't yet "know" how to draw that link when it's rendering that part of the page. I'm gonna play with it some more.
